MERGED: All about Anti-Cybercrime Law, related issues and developments

According to Ted Te, while listening to Rappler Talk Thurday, this law didn't even went through the Commission on Information and Communications Technology(CICT)

+1 to Guingona III.

Just an FYI, the original cybercrime law was drafted by PH-CERT, a private and a non-profit aggrupation of Information Security Professionals providing Technical and Policy Advisory Services for the COUNTRY.

But they were not aware of the inclusion of the alleged unconstitutional provisions.

“As legislative processes go, certain provisions managed to either disappear or find their way into the draft which veered away from the model law and the original intent of the drafters along with the constitutional safeguards that were put in place,” the group said.

...

“The draft that we were preparing for 11 years saw some changes in the hands of legislators that we didn’t anticipate. As PH-CERT, we spoke about the possible implications of these insertions. Ours was only to follow consistency based on the Budapest Convention,” Averia said.

Thanks for sharing. Previous versions (I have read CICT, Trillanes & Villar) are more decent than RA 10175. Particularly kay Trillanes, wherein sa penalties og enforcement and implementation parts kay justifiable ra. Unlike sa RA 10175 nga murag bugat ra kaayo ang penalties and hadlok kaayo nga og makitan nga sayop, takedown dayon imong system nga way pagduhaduha. tsk tsk tsk way tarong ning pagka-reviewha sa mga namirma. Di na ko mu-tackle anang libel clause kay pamersonal nang kang sotto.

"You mean to say the cyberspace is a zone of impunity you can lambast maliciously yung mga kalaban at kaaway mo without fear of any sanction at all?"-- Sen. Eduardo Angara

Yes senator that's exactly how the internet works but you have the choice whether you want to read the things said about you or not. Unsa man klaseng PUBLIC figures ni sila di man musugot ma-criticize publicly? Resign nalang.

Politicians will inevitably attempt to enrich themselves or create an environment of impunity when left unchallenged. Take for example Kenya where lawmakers passed a finance bill with a hidden provision giving themselves $120,000.00 each in addition to a monthly salary of $10,000.000. Now imagine if you had no right to criticize.


It's up to all of us to say "Hey, we see what you're doing... no way!... and if you don't like my tone too bad, find another job out of the spotlight".

Some still think this is just the work of a number of senators. Think again:

Either our beloved leader has rocks in his head or there's something sinister going on.

Dodging critics by censoring the net (unconsciously) that's what they think. It's like an indirect threat to critics and loudmouths using the criminal cyber libel.
